The world is everywhere in heaven--

When I saw this movie for the first time, I was a primary school student, but vaguely realized that it was a story about heaven and hell. The oil painting scene flashed in my brain for more than ten years, so I have a plot for it.

This is a movie made up of big loves. Although it is much more cliché than I thought, sometimes the more cliché the more sincere and innocent. At least in such a big era, everyone is in it. When trying my best to marginalize myself, I am glad that I can still be moved by many clichés.

I like the setting of heaven in the movie. Everyone has their own heaven. You can become what your own heaven looks like. Just before I searched for this movie, I saw some articles about the subconscious, roughly saying that everything in this world is fake and created by ourselves, and the entire world and the entire universe are only us. In fact, to put it bluntly, it means that our subjective thoughts determine whether something is good or bad. Or this paradise is one's own desire for life.

In fact, in normal life, is it true that when life follows the way we think we live, we live in heaven, and vice versa is hell. In fact, the most critical aspect of this movie is that our consciousness affects our lives. Many things we consider to be good are good. Many times we sink into sorrow, a firm and beautiful consciousness, hell will also become heaven.

So I said that a good movie must release some positive energy, otherwise how do we live in this world ==


PS: 98 years old film, the special effects look completely out of date.

    When I thought that it was a film in 1998, it scored five stars. As a Buddhist story with a Christian image, the cliché love is interpreted by reincarnation, and the imagination and beauty of heaven and hell are extremely beautiful. There are also stage plays. The exquisiteness. Robin Williams looks old, but the American-style middle-class man conforms to the film’s personality. He feels warm after seeing the movie when he thinks of other people’s absence. Last night, his parents were asleep and he was lying on the sofa with someone to watch.

    It seems that I saw it in the first year of junior high school, it's too old... I still remember that the US box office was the sixth of the week and then dropped (the people who watch satellite TV movies every day are so boring). I can still vaguely remember some plots and scenes. The male protagonist said to his son, you don't understand this is the way I love your mother. Go to hell for you, go to hell with you, this is the proof that I love you.
